Most Re-Rentable: PRETTY IN PINK.



PRETTY IN PINK is the
archetype for love conquering over the odds....in the eighties.  Our
heroine, Andie Walsh is an intelligent, interesting girl from the wrong
side of the tracks.  She is all things beautiful, and studious.  More over,
she completely owns, and rocks a unique style.  Her bourgeois peers
take note, then torture her accordingly.  Andie has a circle of rad
friends including the illuminating Annie Potts, and Duckie, her love
sick side-kick.  Andie works at the totally tubular Trax, a record
store.  It's there she meets and speaks to the dreamy, richie-rich
Blaine.  He likes what he sees, and romance riddled with conflict
begins.  I cherish this flicker with all my heart.  Do yourself a favor,
rent it + love it.
